Which term means being everywhere at the same time?

• A. Triage
• B. Vascular
• C. Transmission
• D. Ubiquitous

Answer: (D)

Ubiquitous means existing or being everywhere. It describes something so widespread that you encounter it in many places, almost anywhere you go. For example, cell phones are ubiquitous in modern life because you see them everywhere.

The other terms don’t convey that idea. Triage is about prioritizing who needs care first in emergencies. Vascular relates to blood vessels and the circulatory system. Transmission is the act of passing something—such as a disease or information—from one person or thing to another.
